Molaeb: A Monograph (1967–2024)

This landmark volume celebrates the extraordinary career of Lebanese artist Jamil Molaeb, whose prolific output spans over five decades. Molaeb: A Monograph (1967–2024) brings together, for the first time, an extensive selection of the artist’s œuvre—from monumental paintings and intricate etchings to rarely seen drawings and sculptures. Designed at a generous 29 × 32.5 cm format, the book honors the scale and depth of Molaeb’s visual language while offering readers an immersive journey through the many phases of his creative evolution.

The publication’s structure follows a thematic rather than chronological thread, allowing for a deeper, more intuitive exploration of Molaeb’s artistic concerns. Each chapter weaves together visual analysis, firsthand interviews, archival reviews, and references to the artist’s own writings, offering layered insights into his world. Beyond being a retrospective, this monograph is a long-overdue tribute that secures Jamil Molaeb’s place within the canon of Arab modern art.
